The cucumbers are starting to roll in. So they're getting pollinated somehow. Hopefully the bees are just showing up whenever I'm not there.
Ive had a nice influx of em. Cucs are coming on like crazy. My pole beans are dropping leaves, but setting up a nice crop of beans. I think I have an aphid problem as I have some ladybugs that have shown up too, will spray today.

Mrs Sausage (she loves that name) already cleaned up a bunch of yellow onions and put them away. The reds were the last to come in from the garden.

You will love them. They taste great. Use them in place of bell peppers. Taste great right off the plant

Man, I suck at growing cucumbers. I always have something really messing them up, sometimes a couple of things at the same time. Mildew, or rust or insects. This time might be spider mites, I'm not real sure. I give up!

Tomatoes are kicking arse though so that makes me feel better.

Same. Some years my cucumbers are great, and this year they're laughing at me! Very low yield and the plants look pathetic. I finally broke down and hand-pollinated them, which seems to have improved things.

But...my tomatoes and peppers are doing great, so I feel better about those. At this board's recommendation, I ordered seeds for Jimmy Nardello, Scotch Bonnet, Shishito, and Cubanelle. Those babies are looking healthy, and I'm about to start bringing them outside for field trips.

I have Bananas, Jalapenos, Giant Marconis, Bells, Anaheims, Srirachas, and Tabascos thriving and producing. Also...some very sad eggplant and some very worn out green beans (but happy butter beans). The okra is starting to take off, and I have herbs coming out of my ears. We win some and lose some, I guess, but gardening is so fun either way.
